Jubilee Pageant Preparations

Started our walk early Saturday morning by the Southbank Centre, hoping to see mustering boats and ships of all shapes and sizes ...







Some Royal enthusiasts protecting their viewing spot ...



We need more bunting ...




Between London and Tower bridge is where the Avenue of Sail starts - comprised of all the tall ships that couldn't join the pageant beyond London Bridge - I loved the contrast between the old ships and the modernity of the office landscape.


















In the evening, we took our bikes on a ride from Hammersmith Bridge to Albert Bridge and back - this is where the pleasure boats, barges and sundry small boats were mustering and mooring for the night.








One crew was in for an uncomfortable night ahead ...
